Excellent- different, the same, and scary

Rating: 10/10 (29 June 2003)

From beginning to end, this movie had me. It was trippy, freaky, funny, serious, sad, etc. As my friend commented, the film quality was weird... and that gave it a feeling that matched the mood, or maybe it made the mood. The movements and expressions on the first zombies Jim saw were excellent.

Some other good stuff: -people out the save the planet killed it (12 monkeys I know, but this was "for real") -loved the way the save the planet attitude, in my opinion, won out in the end (not humanistic greed and vileness) -loved the way there were two totally separate parts to the movie... the first half was a traditional zombie movie I guess, whereas the 2nd part was a human vs human thing that happened to be set in zombieworld.

loved the way the army guys were evil, but not all of them.

loved the change in the main hero. He started out a wimp and ended up a badass (because he realized the world was gone, and then he realized he HAD to save you know who). - and I LOVED the way the heroes were all pretty damn smart when it counted (as opposed to being idiots like the some traditional trash horror movies)

Anyway, I just liked the whole damn movie. It had that otherworldly feel to me because it was set in Britain with that alternative feel to the characters.
10 outta 10
